An older friend gave me a great piece of advice when I was younger. When I remember it, life suddenly takes a turn for the better. His advice was simple, “Ray, when things are not the way you like them and you can’t change them, roll with it.” It works. Here’s an example of how I recently used his advice, This past Sunday I went for breakfast at a French bakery. I ordered coffee and a speciality omelet. On Sundays I like to treat myself to one of their bran muffins. They were out of the bran muffins. I could get upset and leave or I could roll with it. I rolled with it and asked for the blueberry muffin instead. Not quite as healthy, but it was delicious.
